About this ebook
A famed motorcycle traveller is sent to Mars to explore the red planet for colonization. Earth is doomed by pollution and overexploitation of its resources. Can she find a new place for the human race to live—and should she?
*
Jacqui explored the Earth on her venerable Royal Enfield 500cc motorbike in the early 21st-century. One hundred and twenty years later her cryonically preserved body is thawed and she is flown to explore Mars as part of mankind's effort to find new worlds to colonize. Earth is doomed through overpopulation, decimation of its resources and choking pollution. She knows that she is being used as a symbol of the struggle to survive, and though anxious to do her best, she is plagued with doubts that the human race will inevitably ruin another planet. Riding her trusty steed Enfield, now powered by an electric motor, she surveys the landscape, coming across a promising plain. Pausing to take photographs, Jacqui falls into a reverie as she encounters an ancient Martian.

Paul Whybrow
Paul Whybrow has a young head on old shoulders. Ex many things, including being a teacher, counsellor, librarian, dispatch rider, milkman, postman, bar man, house renovator, classic vehicle restorer, courier, van driver, factory worker, project manager, live-in carer for the elderly, editor, photographer, volunteer at a community centre, play-schemes, homeless campaigns and nature conservation projects. I wrote non-fiction magazine articles for ages, but turned to creative writing in the summer of 2013. I've been my own boss for a long time, which means I'm working for an idiot and the pay is lousy—but the holidays are great. Paul Whybrow has a good heart inside a battered chest.
